Doha, Qatar: The Real Estate Development Dispute Resolution Committees have officially begun operations, marking a significant milestone in regulating the property market, protecting investor rights, and ensuring the efficient and transparent application of legal procedures in real estate development disputes.

The launch represents a strategic step towards reinforcing transparency, enhancing market stability, and ensuring that disputes between developers, investors, and stakeholders are resolved in accordance with the highest legal and regulatory standards.

The Ministry of Municipality has made the announcement on the X platform. The committees were established under Law No. (6) of 2014 and its amendments, and are designated to examine all types of disputes arising from the implementation of the Real Estate Development Law. 

They function as specialised judicial bodies that act urgently and issue decisions that carry immediate enforceability. 

Each committee is empowered to resolve cases within a period not exceeding three months from the date the request is filed, with the possibility of extending the timeframe only when the nature of the dispute requires it.
